When billionaire Nerio Winch (Miki Manojlovic) is murdered, the focus shifts to his reluctant heir, Largo (Tomer Sisley), to take over the reins of his late father's major international corporation. But first he must overcome the onslaught of drug traffickers, assassins, militia fighters and double-dealing corporate-political traders to fulfill his destiny at the head of the table in this fast-paced Euro action-adventure thriller. -- (C) Music Box Films

The press notes for the original Belgian comics upon which the big-screen adaptation Largo Winch is based sounds like the stuff of thrilling high pulp: "What if," creator Jean Van Hamme asks, "the son of the richest man in the world had to fend off all manner of kidnappers, murderers, and blackmailers, while also confronting the mysteries of his own concealed childhood?" I'm summarizing here, but that sounds like the recipe for globe-trotting, two-fisted adventures--Batman without the mask avenging the death of his adoptive father from corporate raiders. I've never read the source material, but it seems like my kind of thing.
